DAVEH:  There I go again.....I seem to easily loose your train of thought.  What do you mean by ex-fellowship?  Does that refer to your wandering from the Stone Cambell movement?  If so, I don't quite understand how that applies to the apostles......   John In a message dated 7/26/2004 11:59:15 PM Pacific Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Not really.

I would have not reason not to accept the others listed in scripture as "apostles" including the replacement for Judas, Paul, Barnabas, DAVEH:  I guess I was just confused by your earlier comment of only 12......sorry, John. and there is one or two others list ????  As far as a succession of apostles,  I do not see any concern for apostolic succession in the writings of the few apostles who addressed scripture (Peter, John, Paul).  Do you see it differently? and the "prophets" became unnecessary DAVEH:  Why would you think that, John? Actually, I don't think that. DAVEH:  Ohhhh.....Again, I'm having trouble following you, I guess.   I have never spoken in tongues but I am charismatic to the bone.   I see lots of problems in the pentecostal side of the aisle, but  they are the same problems Paul had to deal with in the first church.   As a charismatic, I would say that there are not as many prophets as are claimed but  more than we many suppose.  The proof is in the ministry.  as soon as God gave us the Protestant  (ah, one of your favoright words) Bible  ((as per a misuse of I Co 13 the closing verses - in my humble but correct opinion.)  John -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dave Hansen [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.langlitz.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If you wish to receive things I find interesting, I maintain Five email lists...
